The Firelands occupy the theoretical bottom of the "sphere" of the Elemental Plane. Just as the Skywall sits atop the plane, in a sort of bowl shape, the Firelands sit in the bottom of a similar curve. The "ground" underneath the surface is a sticky, bubbling mess of tar, ooze and rock fallen from Deepholm, which of course serves as the "sky." In some places, lakes of flammable oil and combustibles form, burning constantly and filling the air with superheated smoke. Organic and semi-organic material from Deepholm, and even the waters of the Abyssal Maw higher above, constantly filters down to provide new fuel for the endless flames. In places where the Fire Princes do battle with Therazane, huge volcanoes rise, spewing lava into the Firelands and upwards as well, sometimes reaching the floor of the Abyssal Maw or even the upper surface of Deepholm, where they blow noxious fumes into Al'Akir's realm.

It will be introduced in Patch 4.2 as a raid instance with Ragnaros as the endboss. The loot will probably based on Tier 12, a step up from the loot acquired in early raid instances in Cataclysm like The Bastion of Twilight.

Do not a few Hyjal quests also bring you to some very small areas located in the Firelands?

Comment by Yorgl

I'm pretty sure they do. =)Fun quests, as I remember !

Comment by SpecificRandom

If catspats was right this is gonna be fun, although i if it will be like OS and RS. Either way itll be fun to fight ragnaros again

Comment by Normal

Yeah... I looked down into the lava and the floating chunks of land. Before I started flapping those wings, I realized what I was about to get into...

Laggy, 3D, hard to control... Joust. On the plus side it's much harder to lose and there's a bunch of eggs in the back room for wave 3. Makes life slightly easier.

And you get a prize for enduring it all.

Comment by TNC420

Really a new Ragnaros fight :D! I was kinda disappointed with the Hyjal quest where I fought Ragnaros with that dude. But now another epic battle against the greatest WoW boss ever! :D

Comment by Grimfeng

Not actually a new 5-man instance. Why is this here?

Comment by beauxman

So, how does one find this dungeon?

Comment by Afakaz

One waits until the patch when it's implemented.

Comment by CanadianSniper

This dungeon would be very disappointing if there was no fire to stand in.

Comment by Vaeku

"That dude?"

...

"That dude" you're referring to is Malfurion Stormrage, the most powerful druid in Azeroth and possibly the most powerful mortal ever.

Kids these days...

Comment by Gweryan

A possible new model for Ragnaros (which will obviously be the last boss of this.) has also been shown on mmo-champion. Click here to see it.

Comment by khornehroth

This is not a raid. People need to stop calling it a raid. It is listed as a five man dungeon. READ THE INFO AT THE TOP BEFORE POSTING INCORRECT INFORMATION.

Caps lock ftw :D

Comment by Rylana101

@khornerathWhat are you retarded? People are posting things about it being a raid because it IS A RAID. Its listed as a dungeon because blizzard is not finished with this. Its the new raid thats coming out in patch 4.2 And yes, i do mean 4.2 . The last boss is ragnaros and is going to drop some nice stuff. So please dont be rude to other people when thier right. Get your facts straght.

How nice to see now Raggy have 2 short legs.oh.. and not to forget to mention 2 bunny ears on fire...

Comment by Karlzone

You forgot about Thrall.

Comment by KingArthis

You know, this raid is reminds me of the scourge. The bosses are just like northrend bosses and mobs. Staghelm is a nightelf and uses the nightelf model just like Prince Valanar, spider is just like a big crypt fiend, the phoenix bird is just a protodrake model, ragnaros is Kiljaedin from BC, Baleroc is a doomguard. It is like fighting the mobs in the Burning Crusade Expansion Mount Hyjal raid all over again. I mean really, a spider boss in a flame themed raid? There are much better models to use than a spider.

Comment by KingArthis

You all are blinded by the lies of other people. Furion is one of the greatest villains in wow. First of all, he is the reason the scourge were still around up to wrath ( he stopped illidan's spell), he enabled the draenei to experience unmeasurable pain and suffering ( he let illidan go and enslave broken), he abandoned the blood elves and ended up almost letting Kil'jaedin reenter Azeroth ( in WCIII after furion runs away to save tyrande not even thinking twice about the blood elves that helped him save the scourge) and he also is a valuable asset to the old gods. What spell does he use to 'trap' staghelm when the latter imprisoned thrall? he used entangling roots. Would roots do any good to fire? It was all a setup. Furion is not a hero of azeroth but a criminal. Who knows, maybe he was conspiring with Xavius in the emerald dream. Maybe he will even unleash the old gods.

Please play through Warcraft III and the WC3 expansion before down rating this. You will see Furion plotting his grand masterpiece. More evidence: Furion purposely puts the orc and human forces in front of his to ensure the death of Thrall and Jaina when the burning legion tries to take the world tree. In the frozen throne expansion, he even leaves Maiev and Tyrande alone to travel across the scourge infested plaguelands. Then he blames Maiev for Tyrande's "death". Furion is a selfish old man and should not be trusted by anyone. After he and Illidan part brothers again after Illidan saves Tyrande, he does nothing to stop Maiev from hunting and killing his brother. Furion simply used Illidan to get his lover back.

The flamewakers are among the most feared elemental guardians in the Firelands. Shannox is no exception. Serving as the chief hunter and kennel master of Ragnaros's hell hounds, Shannox patrols the elemental realm with his two most ferocious beasts: Riplimb and Rageface.

Comment by Fergu98

i don't like that you have to have a certain gear score to enter firelands. i understand why but at the same time i don't like it because there are some people that cant raid with the guild, or cant raid in PUG's. Maybe it is there fault but maybe it isn't. I am TRYING to build up valor and justice points to get better gear and although i am raiding mostly pugs, i don't have gold for enchants and other necessities like that. Ive gotten 6 epics, gemmed nicely, 2 even enchanted nice and my gear score hasnt gone up a single point! still it is 349. you have to have 359 or 360? like wtf? im not gonna nerd rage all day and not have a life so i can get to 360. atleast make it lower... like 355 or something.(##RESPBREAK##)8##DELIM##asakawa##DELIM##

Comment by Fergu98

i hate how your iLvl has to be 359. i think it should be 355. i understand why it is 359 but i think that heroic should be 359 and normal be 355. only hard core nerd raging people who don have lives (or might have (a) disabilitie(s) where they cant work) can get to 359. no offense to anyone

Comment by Chancelot

I have looked around, but I haven't been able to confirm: will you be able to mount up inside the raid instance? If so, I'll spend the cash on a Traveler's Mammoth.

Comment by Skarryo

i didn't say i killed him before now did i^^ i just said i'm looking FORWARD to killing him, because of what i know is that you actualy can kill him in the firelands and not just banish him.

Comment by killars

Learntoraid.com already has 5 of the 7 Firelands boss guides available on their site. Along with the full previous tier of normal and heroic bosses (13/13) there is a lot to check out and discuss on the site and forums.

Here is just one of the new videos of Firelands content featuring Alysrazor one of the first bosses of the zone.

Comment by KingArthis

Furion obviously likes the horde more than the alliance. He put the human forces ahead of the orcs on mount hyjal. And in the in-game hyjal raid, the human town hall was all the way down in a ditch. What horrible planning. Just set a couple of meat wagons on the easily accessible high ground and annihilate the human forces below. Furion had planned this and wishes to wipe out all the races other than the night elves. He is the warcraft version of Kerrigan. He manipulates his "allies" into thinking he is working for the greater good but in the end, he back stabs them. Just like Kael was betrayed, Illidan, Thrall and so many others. Just watch, his plan has already succeeded in the most part. He has finally married his only love, Tyrande. Now he seeks to rid the world of the beings that oppose him so he can easily dispose of the remaining races afterword. You see he is allowing the night elves to go back to their old arcane ways. He "saves" both the worgen and draenei in order to bolster the alliance which is the major puppet in his grand schemes.

Comment by lile130

I think you missed something. MALfurion (not just "Furion", when I saw that as many times as I did I wanted to punch a puppy) was unaware of who he was going against. He didn't know it was Staghelm. How could anyone? I hear hoods sure do keep identities hidden. And the bit with the roots, was again, before he knew who the perpetrator was.

Comment by preborn

One can farm rep with Avengers of Hyjal on trash here, unconfirmed, but i believe trash gives rep to 5999/6000 friendly.

Comment by battierpeeler

how do you get there? like where is the portal or zone-in? i might not be able to ever raid in there but i like looking around in stealth after forming a raid with 1 other person.

Comment by oshosh

The entrance to the raid is on Mount Hyjal at the Throne of Flame at Sulfuron Spire.Can't give coords, cause my addon is not updated yet and dunno how to do pins on a map here , but i think it should be enough ^^

Is there going to be vent rages on Rag Kills like back in vinilla? hahah, i wish..

Comment by SenryakuVen

Anyone else notice how there is no dps plate shoulder drops in firelands? Wondering if Spaulders of Recurring Flame was maybe suppose to be the dps ones considering they have so much str and less sta then the other tank shoulders.

Though mostly dogs in WoW are able to see stealthed players none of the dogs or anyone else of the NPCs can see stealth. So actually Stealth Runs are possible. "For what?" may some of you ask? For fun!

When I first entered the Firelands Raid I were feared some Daedra would show up behind the next corner. the Instance reminds me alot of Oblivion - The Elder Scrolls.

Comment by Zarmful

As of patch 4.0.3a, Scorpoins and Pyrelords got a speed increase, and now they move at ~150% speed and can not be slowed. I am a sad panda, I just got the hang on them =/- The Hellhounds and Terrorpene's father can still be kited.

Comment by CalaelenDT

The Avengers of Hyjal is the Faction associated with the Firelands raid. Gaining reputation with them is done by killing trash and bosses, which in turn allows you to purchase items at each reputation level, starting at Friendly. The rewards are Cloak (378) > Waist (378) > Trinket (378) > Ring (391) from Friendly to Exalted respectively. The Avengers of Hyjal vendors can be found right outside the Firelands entrance and right inside the Firelands.

Reputation gains are (not including the increased reputation gain from the Mr. Popularity Guild Perk):

Comment by Alkaios315

I like the approach to the tier 12 armor sets. "Yo dawg, we heard you like Firelands, so we put fire on your armor so you can burn while you burn."

Comment by Gnoktish

Firelands has purposely lost all my motivation to raid this patch. The lack of spirit cloth and low chances of healing items dropping is close to never dropping. The only spirit cloth i can get is the random chance hat and hope that it'll provide spirit. I may get weapons and a trinket, but my armor progression will take the longest of all classes as a holy priest. We depend on spirit but forced to either waste high amounts of gold for tailoring crafts which cannot be upgraded to heroic, and spent more time saving up valor points. In the long run, priests has recieved the worst of this patch with little to no satifaction of accomplishment or usefulness.

Comment by Starhunter

Some tips we wiped 97 times for before finally getting our kill yesterday on the heroic ragnaros(10m):

General: Don't waste your time with bad setups. We benched our resto shaman and dps warrior from the very beginning and had our feral dd respec to balance. It may be possible to beat the encounter with unusual setups, but given the time needed to learn it even with a nearly optimal setup (we had Pala/Warrior Tank, Pala/Druid Heal, 2 Moonkins, 1 Demo Warlock, 1 Arcane Mage, Hunter and Rogue), I would never even try it if I had any choice.

Phase 1: If your DPS is decent (and it has to be, otherwise you won't manage P3) slow down on dpsing so that you can detonate a trap at 71/72 percent. This way you'll only have one trap in P1,5/P2 which just eases stuff.

Phase 2: We optimized our complete setup for this phase, taking 2 Owlkins with us and only one melee. Our tactic was going together from one side to the other, spawning all of the adds in one point. Our warlock (me) and our arcane mage, however, started on the opposing side. This way, we could actually help bombing (you always have aggro of the add you spawned yourself) while the melee finished one of our adds, leaving one harmless add for the cleanup. This tactic changed P2 from nearly unmanageable to easy.

Before P2.5 starts, bring the boss to 42%, wait for World in Flames, then dps him down as hard as you can without using crucial CDs (you'll need them in P3). This way, you can start P3 with 37% instead of 39%.

Phase 2.5: Have one designated DD prepare an add for a later kill, we had a person to do this on both sides and they communicated who would prepare an add according to the hammer position and number of adds. This way, you can optimize the dps on the adds. With good spawn points, we occasionally started P3 without Scions.

Phase 3: we had our hunter and healers take care of the meteors as much as possible to free up the dps, but I guess the main key to success is a good Phase 2.5 and the World-in-Flames-Trick at the end of P2.

Phase 4: Rule number one is definitely: Don't panic. The phase is rather easy now that you don't have to deal with 3+ meteors. We had one range DD (an owlkin) on meteor duty, meaning that he would kick it away again and again and announce the moment we kite it into our zone (usually parallely to the first roots). Afterwards, it's basically tank and spank with a twist, just be communicative about dreadflame spawnpoints. Right before roots spawned, our offtank left the camp to taunt the boss away from roots spawning right under him (happens more often than you would think, especially on good tries). We had some tries where the dreadflames seemed rather unmanagable (spawning as far apart of each other as possible everytime), but in most of the cases, if your fire extinguisher knows what he's doing, he'll manage it. Took us roughly 25-30 tries in P4 to actually get a kill, probably less than 10% of what guilds had to invest before the nerf :-)

Pro tip:When we reached P4 rather consistently, we allowed trash talking during P1 and P2 (not during Submission Phases) to overcome the extreme boredom of the first 8 minutes of the fight until you finally reach the "hot" phase. This made the whole progression a lot funnier without causing any unneccessary wipes.

I did defeated beth and Shannox and got a good ring and gloves still wish dropped looks sooooo cool :)

Comment by Rexxars

Cool...

Comment by TheWheatOne

This still has a lot of transmog, legendary quest, and rare mount potential. And thanks to brute force numbers and ilvls, we 6man-ed it on 10man normal in a reasonable amount of time with very casual players, with only one true tank and two healers. Still, if you don't know the tricks, it can get rough, so don't think you can go in without even reading up the bosses.

Comment by rsouzarj

Everyone on raid need to have Fireland access? Or we can just summon on stone?

Comment by suxino

Comment by GoRozZo

Nowadays Alysrazor is farming solo by any class without problems. The main possible trouble is evade if you fly from boss very far, but its more a random. So add a rare fire phoenix to your mount collection ;)Killed by Rogue solo in Heroic mode:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oRuzzXVK_Vo

Comment by olteonz

Can confirm that this raid is a breeze to solo at level 100 with 660 ilvl.

Comment by Acann

Remain in Chakra: Chastise, spam smite and use Solace whenever the cooldown comes off (Solace will be your main heal). Reflective Shield deals a good chunk of damage too, so use it when it is also off cooldown.

I wasn't able to kill some of the 25-man bosses and had to switch out to 10-man, typically as a result of mechanics or not enough dps, or both. And both Shadow and Discipline don't really work for soloing this place because of the nerf to Shadow's self-healing, and Discipline's lackluster DPS.-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Lord Rhyolith (25-Man):Steer him to the volcanoes and avoid the edge. You can clear the smaller adds with PW:Shield and can Mind Sear if they're not dead yet. PW:Shield and Solace typically kills the larger adds. I'd pop Power Infusion and Shadowfiend once armor breaks, it's an easy fight.

Beth'tilac (25-Man):Kill one of the spiders that drops down, go up top and burn the boss, very easy fight.

Shannox (10-Man):I didn't have enough dps to do this on 25-man because I couldn't kill Rageface quick enough before he used Face Rage on me, which is a wipe when soloing. Strat is simple: Kill Rageface as soon as possible, pop all cooldowns and burn him. Afterwards just down the boss and avoid traps.

Alysrazor (25-Man):Easy fight on 25-Man. I got three feathers for the speed increase but didn't fly up. Kill the adds when they spawn and range the boss down throughout the fight. Avoiding the tornadoes of flame is easy: just follow one.

Baleroc (10-Man):I couldn't do enough dps on the 25-man version before he killed me, the 10-man version is easy, I'd just avoid the Shard of Torment and burn him down.

Staghelm (10-Man):Much like Baleroc, I couldn't do enough dps on the 25-man version before I was killed. Avoid the circles of fire and just burn the boss down, he dies fairly quickly.

Ragnaros (10-Man):I didn't attempt it on 25-man, mostly out of laziness and wanting to go to sleep, but the 10-man version is easy. Kill the adds when they spawn and burn the boss down.-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------For those who are working on the legendary quest like I was during this run, I obtained 236 Seething Cinders from running the above bosses/difficulty.

Patch 6.0.2: Soloed this raid as enh shaman ilvl 564.

Comment by Cantralian

For anyone wanting to try for the mounts in a post-stat squish environment: go for it. I'm a mainly TI geared iLvl 536 BM hunter (two tier pieces from the Celestials), no raiding experience, very average player and I've never been in Firelands before. Did all bosses on 10M normal with no issues and only one death, to some trash who did stacking fire damage (the two fire worms just before Ragnaros) which killed me right quick.

Basically, I burned all bosses without worrying about strats or mechanics, just stayed out of the bad on the ground and on Shannox made sure to kill Rageface, then Riplimb, then Shannox. Ran with a spirit beast, but will swap to a shale spider next time for the damage reduction since I had to pop Last Stand and res my pet on Baleroc. Used glyph of animal bond, glyph of mending, glyph of misdirect and the spirit bond talent.

90 warlockilevel: 527Just wanted to drop some data.

Finished normal 10 man pretty easy last week, so decided to try 10 man Heroic this week.Only problems I had were with (in order of hardest to least):-Majordomo-Shannox-Lord Rhyolith

The rest were just fun dpsing. Especially Alysrazor <3Just be prepared to Glyph and Talent swap when needed. Happy raiding o/

Comment by grykee

Been doing 10m since 6.0.1 when i started the legendary questline. First few weeks on my Warlock i roflstomped it no prob. This week i noticed it seemed to take decidedly longer and even wiped on Rag once. Is it just me or did locks either get a nerf or did firelands get a buff? Or did the adjust the legacy content buff?

Comment by Gulanga

Solo farming this on heroic 10 man post 6.0.2 is very doable, however it might require some gear.I've been farming this on 10man hc on my warrior since the patch and it is not difficult for me at all, at ilvl 581. However some bosses will be a problem for lesser geared folks.

Problem bosses are:Beth'ilac - You need to kill one of the hanging spider adds quick and get up before they start stunning you. Once you are up you must kill her before going down. If you go down you will be permanently stun-locked by the adds.

Staghelm - This might be hard for some people because of the damage you take, otherwise it is simple

Ragnaros - All about managing the adds. Keep them from hitting the hammer during his down phases. I've gotten 2 hammers and 2 sets of adds at the same time, this is no fun. The hammer can also be invisible, but you will still see the glow effect. This is the only real issue in this fight.

Comment by GamingTV

Comment by Clythez

So since i personally feel mage is the hardest class to solo as of right now i figured id chip in with my 2 cents - bear in mind this is for 25 man HC the other difficulties are all fairly easy:

The first 4 bosses are a cakewalk, small notes tho:

Shannox - focus him, use water elemental to break face rageBeth'tilac - kill a spinner go upstairs then just simple nuke, dont get hit by meteors, they will drop you downRhyolith - You might have to kite through a couple of volcanos otherwise just keep him away from the edgeAlysrazor - Pick up feathers, dont fall down, ?, Profit

Now here starts the harder parts, for all 3 Mirror Images are essential:

Baleroc - Blow everything on pull, soon as first shard gets dropped blink it and continue nuking, your elemental will mostly likely be either dead or close, resummon and blink the second shard, he should die about now, otherwise you are screwed.

Fandral Staghelm - By far the hardest of the instance for this i recommend going cold snap, icy nova, mirror images and thermal void also you NEED glyph of regenrative ice. Start the fight off with water jet and mirror images, after he kills the first blow everything you have and nuke as hard as possible, save icy novas for whenever he gets 2-3 spirits up and clear them with one hit, every time he uses leap of flame (which will be every 2-3 seconds after about 40 seconds of the fight) move OUT, the damage may not seem like much but you cant afford to take a simple point of unnescesary damage. You will have to resummon your elemental at one point and you will also get another round of images off, use ice blocks / cold snap for heals as needed, i also had to pop a tonic. Enjoy phat lewts.

Ragnaros - Compared to the Fandral he is a piece of cake, basically nuke the boss, avoid fire traps, ignore adds that run to hammer (their "spell" will miss you), kill lava scions, save big cooldowns for phase 4 (which is when you kill him and he reappears), also in general, DONT STAND IN FIRE

PS. I used flask / food buff for the last 3.PPS. As of the current patch (Highmaul) i am @ 660 ilvl and thus is fairly well geared, most except staghelm is probably doable with considerably lower item level.

Comment by GitGudGuides

Firelands

The Firelands is one of the areas of the Elemental Plane. The entire plane was crafted by the Titans during the early days of Azeroth and it serves as a prison for the planet's native elementals as well as their ruler, Ragnaros the Firelord. The raid instance, introduced in patch 4.2, is located on one of the many rocky islands swimming on the sea of endless magma. Players will fight Ragnaros' trusted lieutenants before facing the Firelord himself. It has many parallels to Molten Core both in design, reputation, loot, and NPCs.

From the Blizzard Community site:"The Firelands is the molten domain forged by the titans to house Ragnaros and his wayward minions. Following Deathwing's emergence into Azeroth, Ragnaros and his servants surged onto the slopes of Mount Hyjal before being driven back by the sacred mountain's valiant defenders. Now Ragnaros is rallying his loyalists to defend the Firelands from Azeroth's champions.

The ash-choked Firelands is the least hospitable of the elemental domains. What serves as air in this harsh place is laden with scalding, noxious fumes. The only safe havens from the Firelands' ever-churning magma ocean are islands of jagged rock. Yet even the dangers of this merciless landscape pale in comparison to the raging fury of the elementals who dwell there."

Encounters

Beth'tilac – Matriarch of the Cinderweb Brood, Beth'tilac and her merciless offspring sate their appetites by sucking the magma and fire from the corpses of elementals. To provide her broodlings with added sustenance, Beth'tilac has woven a network of incendiary webs throughout her lair to trap unsuspecting prey.

Lord Rhyolith – Rhyolith is one of the most ancient elementals in existence, born from the primordial fires that forged Azeroth itself. He is responsible for the creation of new elementals in the Firelands and still possesses a searing hatred of the titans for what he considers monumental arrogance in relocating him.

Alysrazor – When Ragnaros's forces surged into Mount Hyjal, the green dragon Alysra betrayed her allies and helped liberate the traitorous archdruid Fandral Staghelm. As a reward, she was purified with fire and reborn as a fearsome fire hawk.

Shannox – The flamewakers are among the most feared elemental guardians in the Firelands. Shannox is no exception. Serving as the chief hunter and kennel master of Ragnaros's hell hounds, Shannox patrols the elemental realm with his two most ferocious beasts: Riplimb and Rageface.

Baleroc, the Gatekeeper – Baleroc earned a reputation as a merciless combatant during the elemental wars of ancient Azeroth. Now that he is confined to the Firelands, Baleroc's sanity has dwindled. Few elementals dare disturb him, fearful that they will become victim to his battle lust.

Majordomo Staghelm – The loss of his son, Valstann, in the War of the Shifting Sands utterly shattered Fandral Staghelm's spirit. Now empowered by Ragnaros as the new Majordomo of the Firelands (replacing the deceased Majordomo Executus) and the leader of the treacherous Druids of the Flame, Fandral seeks to bring ruin to Azeroth rather than live in a world without his beloved child.

Ragnaros – Ragnaros, lord of the Firelands, embodies the fury and destruction of the primordial infernos that forged Azeroth itself. Promised the chance to set Azeroth aflame without interference from Neptulon and Therazane, Ragnaros seeks to appease the Old Gods by incinerating the World Tree of Nordrassil.
